The Caulobacter crescentus smc gene is required for cell cycle progression and chromosome segregation.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 14 Sept 1999

Jensen R B, Shapiro L

Abstract excerpt

The highly conserved SMC (Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes) proteins function in chromosome condensation, segregation, and other aspects of chromosome dynamics in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. A null mutation in the Caulobacter crescentus smc gene is conditionally lethal and causes a cell cycle arrest at the predivisional cell stage. Chromosome segregation in wild-type and smc null mutant cells was...
